What is olive oil?

By Food for thought

Olive oil is a fat obtained from the fruit of the Olea europaea (olive tree), a traditional tree crop of the Mediterranean region, where whole olives are pressed to produce olive oil.

The oil is used in cosmetics, medicine, cooking and soaps, and was also used as a fuel for traditional lamps. Although originating in the Mediterranean countries, today it is used worldwide.

Greece has the highest olive oil intake per person in the world. Greeks consume, on average, 24 liters per-person-per-year, according to the North American Olive Oil Association1. Spaniards and Italians consume about 15 and 13 liters-per-person-per year, respectively.

It is understood that the group is in the midst of structuring the assets that are in partnership between brothers Niranjan and Surendra Hiranandani, after which the formal announcement of the deal will be made.

“The company is structuring the assets under one entity, since they are in different partnership firms, so that they can be taken over by Brookfield,” a person with knowledge of the development told FE.

These commercial assets, which are fully leased, house offices of multinational corporations, IT firms and financial institutions.
